"We Will Never Die" Gets Major Press

The March 9, 1943, premiere of the theatrical pageant in New York that was designed to pressure the Roosevelt administration to save the Jews of Europe had its desired effect. 

Press attention was considerable. The Times ran its story on page 12, but with a prominent photograph, and the Brooklyn paper also gave it a hearing.


Congress reacted and adopted the following resolution the next day.
